We’ve had some occasional postings in recent weeks about the pending departure of Sodexo as the Empire State Plaza Concourse’s main food concessionaire and who might fill the spaces — and stomachs of countless state workers as well as lawmakers and visitors to the Capitol complex.

Here’s a piece of good news on that front: Euro Delicacies, which we’re told is a favorite of the summer Farmers Market on the plaza’s outdoor deck.

Here are the details:

New York State Office of General Services (OGS) Commissioner RoAnn M. Destito today announced today that Euro Delicacies will be operating a restaurant in the Empire State Plaza on a full-time basis starting on Monday, November 4. A favorite for visitors to the Plaza’s weekly farmers market, Euro Delicacies will now be serving its Mediterranean and Eastern European dishes Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Swan Street cafeteria next to the Subway restaurant.

Euro Delicacies offers a wide range of food, from salads and pasta to vegetarian specials and chicken dishes to suit a variety of budgets and tastes. Among the most popular items on its menu are spanakopita, eggplant parmigiana, moussaka, and stuffed peppers, as well as baklava.

The cafeteria is located in the Swan Street Building’s Core 3 basement level. Customers can access the restaurant via the Concourse Level through the Swan Street Tunnel located at the base of Agency Building 4. Handicap access is available by entering the Swan Street Core 4 Building and taking the lobby elevator to 3B.
